Custom connector & complex POST question

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

Hello,

 

I am working on integrating Power Apps as frontend for our line of business applications that consume data exposed via different APIs.

 

We are looking at creating a custom connector that will be scalable and customizable with minimum intervention from the developers.

 

To paint a picture, we are exposing a generic API that will have the necessary arguments to retrieve / send data via the body through nested JSON.

 

Example:

 

{

"OperationName": "DummyOperation",

"steps": [{

"stepNumber": 1,

"bindParameters": [{

"par1": "dummy3444444",

"par2": "dummy",

"par3": "dummy",

"when_created": "26-04-2022 14:07:00.000",

"last_update_date": "26-04-2022 14:07:00.000"

}]

}]

}

When I am trying to create a custom connector based on the sample schema, anything under BindParameters gets lost ( as per screenshot)

 

I've seen a similar thread here that suggests to just pass the body fully in the operation. Unfortunately in the thread the connector's configuration is missing. 

Those parameters values will be taken from what the user will select through dropdown and text fields
